Our top cosmetic dentistry services in Mountainside, NJ include:
Dental Veneers
Dental veneers
are thin, custom-made shells that are bonded to the front surfaces of your teeth to improve their appearance. They are often made from materials such as porcelain, Lumineers®, composite, or ceramic.
Porcelain veneers are the most popular type, known for their durability, natural appearance, and resistance to staining.
Lumineers® are a type of porcelain veneer that is thinner than traditional veneers, requiring less tooth preparation.
Composite veneers are made from a resin material and are a more affordable option than porcelain veneers.
Ceramic veneers are another option, offering a strong and durable restoration with a natural appearance.

Cosmetic Dental Bonding
Dental bonding uses a tooth-colored resin to repair chipped or cracked teeth, fill in gaps between teeth, or change the shape or color of teeth. It is a relatively quick and affordable procedure that can significantly improve the appearance of your smile. Dental bonding is often used to treat minor imperfections that do not require more extensive procedures like veneers or dental crowns. Contact our office to schedule an appointment!
Professional Teeth Whitening
At the office of Jay A. Zimmerman, DMD, we offer both in-office and take home professional teeth whitening with Opalescence and KoR!
In-office teeth whitening treatments like Opalescence and KoR offer a fast and effective way to brighten your smile. These treatments involve applying a high-concentration bleaching agent to your teeth under professional supervision. This in-office procedure typically takes about an hour, and results can be seen immediately.
Take-home teeth whitening kits are another option for brightening your smile. These kits include custom-made trays and a bleaching agent that you apply at home over several days or weeks. Opalescence and KoR both offer take-home whitening kits with different strengths and treatment times.
Factors to consider when choosing between in-office and take-home whitening include:
- Time commitment: In-office whitening is a one-time procedure, while take-home whitening requires multiple applications over several days or weeks.
- Tooth sensitivity: Some people may experience sensitivity during or after teeth whitening. Your dentist can recommend ways to minimize sensitivity.
- Budget: In-office whitening is typically more expensive than take-home whitening.
- Desired results: Both in-office and take-home whitening can produce significant results, but the ideal option for you will depend on your goals and lifestyle.
Smile Makeovers
Smile makeovers are a comprehensive approach to improving the appearance of your smile. They often involve a combination of cosmetic dental procedures, such as teeth whitening, dental veneers, dental bonding, and orthodontics. Smile makeovers can help you achieve a more confident and attractive smile by addressing a variety of dental issues, including discoloration, gaps, chips, and crooked teeth.
